The magnetic source that a focus of paying close attention in the DMS research is a system.Because 3 dTransition metal itself and related compound all might deposit form so-called " second phase " in the preparation process, thus the source of its magnetic of interferometric analysis.A kind of method in clear and definite magnetic source is to carry out meticulous structure and performance test analysis.A kind of in addition method is to select nonmagnetic elements to mix or non-doping, because nonmagnetic elements itself and related compound generally do not have ferromegnetism, if observe the ferromegnetism of room temperature in the system, then can think it must is its intrinsic attribute.
ZIRCONIUM DIOXIDE 99.5 (ZrO 2) film has many good physical propertiess: leakage current is little, Heat stability is good, its chemical structure be less than 1000 ℃ the time; No matter be in vacuum or in nitrogen, can both keep stable, has the energy gap of higher insulating coefficient (10 ~ 80), high specific refractory power, broad, very low or the like to the photonic absorbance of wavelength region 300 ~ 1100 nm.Because the not available various advantageous properties of other MOX, ZrO are arranged 2Be widely used in various optical thin films, particularly the application in MOS in recent years (especially being used as gate dielectric) receives very big attention, and therefore the characteristic research to the ZIRCONIUM DIOXIDE 99.5 film has great practical value.2007, Ostanin found through Theoretical Calculation, ZrO 2Under suitable Mn mixes, can obtain the ferromegnetism of room temperature.If also can obtain room-temperature ferromagnetic experimentally, can in the application of expansion zirconium white in the spin semiconducter device, step major step undoubtedly.

Embodiment
Use the LAB600sp magnetic control sputtering system, adopt high-purity (4N) metallic Z r as target.In the experiment, the sputtering power of fixing metal Zr target is 150 W, working gas argon stream amount is set at 35 Sccm, and oxygen flow is respectively 4 Sccm, 6 SccmWith 8 Sccm, change ZrO with this xOxygen element content in the film sample.The background vacuum pressure is 6.0 * 10 -6Mbar, working gas are high-purity argon (5N) and high purity oxygen (5N), and operating air pressure is 4.0 * 10 -3Mbar.Three kinds of representative ZrO that prepare under the above condition xFilm sample, its parameter and numbering are listed in the table below 1.
The ZrO for preparing under table 1 different condition xFilm sample and zirconium oxygen element percentage composition thereof
Utilize the ZrO of X-ray diffractometer experiments of measuring preparation xFilm sample structure, diffraction angle sweep limit are from 10.0 ° to 65.0 °, and sweep velocity is 2 °/min, and step-length is 0.02 °.It is as shown in Figure 1 to measure the gained result.As can be seen from the figure, be 4 at oxygen flow Sccm, 6 SccmWith 8 SccmThe film of following preparation has only monoclinic ZrO 2The generation that other is miscellaneous is not found at (111) peak.
X-ray photoelectron power spectrum (XPS) is to confirm the component and the valent state of its material through the electronics bound energy of measuring element in the material.In the research of diluted semi-conductor thin-film, people often confirm the valence state of element in the film sample through XPS measuring, pay special attention to detect the metal cluster whether zero-valent state is arranged and exist.Measuring result is like Fig. 2,3, shown in 4.From the XPS figure of wide range, can see, except zirconium white, not find the appearance of other impurity element in the film sample, not observe tangible peak in the zone that especially transition metal element (iron, cobalt, nickel) exists between 600eV~900eV.Can find among Fig. 3 that bound energy is respectively 185.6eV and the 183.4eV place is respectively Zr 4+Zr 3 d 3/2With Zr 3 d 5/2The peak.In addition, three film samples have all been found the low price (Zr of Zr at the low energy place 2+, Zr 3+) go back ortho states, promptly reduction reaction has all taken place in three film samples in the preparation process.Fig. 4 is O 1 sXps energy spectrum figure, than film sample ZO-1 and ZO-2, a tangible peak has appearred in sample ZO-3 at the low energy place, we think that oxygen antistructure defect that the zirconium atom position forms causes owing to Sauerstoffatom more than needed occupies this peak.
Fig. 5 is the room temperature magnetic hysteresis loop that obtains after three film samples adopt SQUID to measure.From figure, can be clear that film sample ZO-1 and ZO-2 show as tangible paramagnetic characteristic; And along with the increase of oxygen level, the ZO-3 sample shows as the hysteresis of tangible ferromagnetic material, shows that this sample is ferromagnetic in room temperature.Therefore, the ZrO that obtains through magnetron sputtering xFilm sample has taken place by the transformation of paramagnetic characteristic to ferromagnetic characteristic with the increase of oxygen level.Magnetic source for non-adulterated MOX based diluted magnetic semiconductor exists a lot of disputes at present always.Most of research groups propose, and its magnetic possibly derive from the pollution of the magneticmetal group that introduces in the specimen preparation process bunch or its two second phase.And this experiment can clearly be got rid of the possibility that other metallic element exists from XRD and XPS result.Therefore, we think the ZrO to this Experiment Preparation xThe magnetic source of film should be the intrinsic property that its film itself is had.Can know that in conjunction with the XRD that records, XPS, the further analysis of SQUID spectrogram the ferromegnetism of sample ZO-3 film derives from the antistructure defect of the oxygen of introducing in the specimen preparation process.
